I may revisit and add drops, or possibly promote

40-11+1=10 Picks

I'm fine with whatever people want to do regarding the prospect situation. Just to rehash, I stated that we'd have two extra roster spots for prospects this year. So instead of having 10 prospects max we can now have 12. But you still may very well need to cut some prospects if you have - for example - 10 existing prospects and wish to add four more through the draft. That would mean you'd either need to cut and/or promote two total prospects before the FA draft gets underway.

Just wanted to clear that up.

Another thing I wanted to say is our "Combined" roster sheet may not be up to date regarding any trades that weren't logged yet. Therefore, it might be tricky to start dropping and keeping players if we aren't totally positive who's actually on our rosters.

It's probably best that I do a thorough search for late trades and add those - if any - before publishing our keepers and drops. I understand you guys want to get going so I'll commit to doing that sometime today.

Ideally, I would prefer to start drafting in this league in late April/early May mostly because I'm in so many leagues aside from this one. I could really use a break from having so many drafts all at once. I mean why do that when we don't have to?That's just me. Don't know how the rest of you feel.
